EDS. REcoRD-UNIoN Myself in COM
mon with nearly all the other working
men OF the city, were about year or two
ago trying to make it uncomfortably warm
tor the Chinese. and demanding that they
be compelled to leave Chinatown and take
up quarters outside of the city if they
wanted to live in this vicinity. We were
not only red-hot against the Chinese but
tired to enforce our plans by boycottiny
every white family in the city that gave
any employment to Chinese, or that did
net openly assist us in our effort to
rid ourselves of this human pest. We
did not succeed in our efforts at that time
and there has been no chance to hit them
since, until the market scheme is brought
forward. This plan, if carried out, will
Knock out the center section of the heather
camp, the very worst part of it, and with
this foothold against it we will send the
rest kiting in due time, for the Chinese
must get out OF there or forever remain an
eye-sore for the whole community. Here
Is chance. now, for every anti-Chinese
citizen to strike when it will be felt, by
voting for the tax to have the new market,
and bury out of sight two blocks of the
meanest-looking old rookeries that ever
olsgraced town, and which are filled with
horde of so-called humanity, the meanest
that ever disgraced mankind.
The workingmen of Sacramento are spe.
clally interested in seeing that these two
blocks of Chinese get out of there, and the
way to do 1t is to vote for the market l
understood that Charley ONeill, San
francisco landlord, who owns some of the
emma slough property and gets its rents
and spends them elsewhere, has come here
to hight the city about this vote, and keep
the Chinese under our noses by not letting
US have the new market Will the anti
Chinese voters of Sacramento permit this
impudence to be successful? We have al
ways howled against Chinatown; now that
we have chance at it let every working
man do his duty. ]. B. c.

Last Snike Celebration.

A meeting of the General Committee of
Arrangements for the celebration of the
event of driving the last spike on the Cal
ifornia and Oregon Railroad, was held last
evening at the Improvement Association
Rooms, Mayor Gregory presiding, and w.
r. Ormsby, Secretary. 1t was definitely
arranged that Sacramento will send large
delegation of representative citizens to the
front, to participate in the ceremony at
tending the formal completion of the line,
and that the local demonstration consist of
the blowing of whistles of locomotives,
steamboats,, shops, etc, that the city fire
alarm system be so attached to the railroad
telegraph, that the blows in driving the
silver spike will be reproduced upon the
city fire bell in Sacramento, that salute
be fired and other appropriate exercises be
observed. Colonel Guthrie, Captain Cook,
T. J. Urquhart, w. r. Ormsby and J. o.
Coleman were appointed to have the salute
fired and carry out the proposed pro-
gramme. 1t is expected that the ceremonies
will be held on the 10th inst, but unfavor-
able condition of the weather or other
causes may cause delay of two or three
days.

Runaway Accidents.

Wednesday evening, as the Capitol Hotel
bus was returning from the depot by the
China slough road, the large horses became
frightened at cart standing near the edge
of the water. The driver tried to quiet the
animals, but to no avail. They dashed
madly of, and collided with telegraph
post, stopping the wagon and breaking the
tongue 10 splinters. The driver and horses
escaped unhurt.
Yesterday about noon Curtis Brothers
team, which was standing in the alley be-
tween Fifth and Sixth, j and X, was run
into by ranch wagon. The horses at
tached 10 the market wagon became fright
ened, ana dashed down through the alleys
to Third street, where they were stopped
by colliding with heavy vehicle. During
the run the wheels of the wagon were
smashed, the tongue broken and both axles
sprung. The driver was thrown out, but

Decision Against the City.

The San Francisco Chronicle of yesterday
says: In the case of Bates vs. Porter, Treas
urer of the city of Sacramento, which is an
application for writ of mandate to COM
mand the respondent to set apart an appro-
pirate to fund known as the Sinking
Fund 55 per cent. of all moneys received
by him collected for water rents in the city
of Sacramento, lengthy opinion defining
the duties of the city's officials under the
charter Of 1858 was delivered by Justice
Thornton, and concurred in by Justices
Temple, McKinstry and Sharpstein, yester-
day. 1t reverses the decision of the lower
Court, and requires the Treasurer to set
apart 80 per cent of the gross receipts, ard
not of the net profits, as decided by The
lower Court.
A dissenting opinion was given By JUS
tees Patterson and Searls, and another by
Justice Mcfarland, in which the latter says
that the city of Sacramento conducts its
water works as business, and therefore its
revenue can only be the excess of receipts
over expenditures, and not the entire
amount received.
Similar judgment was rendered in the
case of Hausmeister VS.. Porter.

A Demoralized Sidewalk.

EDS. RECORD UNION: With the advent
of winter and mud comes the propensity to
growl and advise other people how best to
conduct their business. The writer desires
to get in his growl and good advice early in
the season. For some five years, now, or
more, the winter visitor to the State Capitol
building in returning has hoped, skipped
and jumped through the mud of the cross
ing only to land ankle-deep in pool that
perdures, as the philosophers say, at the
northeast corner of Tenth and II streets
until patience in somebody ought to no
longer be counted a virtue. We advise,
that somebody in authority to start from the
delightful stone walk at the entrance to the
Capitol grounds in the dusk of a muddy
evening and dance over that crossing and
see how exactly he always will alight in
the center of the aforesaid puddle. Then
he had better lie down in it as footstool
for others until he is able to absorb some
| knowledge of his duty.

A Despicable Piece of Business.

Yesterday forenoon, an old gray-haired
woman named Mrs. Thomas, and who
lately came to this city from Oroville, was
released from the city prison where she
had been confined for the last few days for
drunkenness. In the afternoon she was
brought to the station-house by officer
Able, so intoxicated that she was unable to
walk or stand without assistance Scarcely
three hours had passed between her re-
lease and the time she was re-arrested. She
procured her liquor in low beer Joint next
to the corner of Second and streets on the
west side. How she procures her intoxicants
unless they are given to her, is a mystery
There are not many places that have liquors.
no matter how poor a quality that they
give away. Those who saw this woman
in her pitiable condition yesterday were
loud in their denunciations of the degraded
persons who would give or sell liquor to
snch a person. Such low dives and Joints
should not be granted license and those
having one should be deprived of It. There
are several places around town like the one
mentioned, and an effort should be made
to crush them. The police should watch
these places and arrest the proprietors
when they violate the law, for they do it
openly in selling liquors to minors, Indians
and common drunkards. If Mrs. Thomas
is convicted to-day of being a comman
drunkard, the proprietor should be ar
rested and vigorously prosecuted for sell
ing liquor to a common drunkard. If this
is done in this case and several others, and
the parties severely punished, it will tend
much to correct this great evil.

A Boy and a Monkey.

An amusing incident occurred yesterday
A grocer was going over to Washington to
deliver some goods and took for a ride a
little 5-year-old boy, who occupied a seat
beside him. On arriving at his destination,
the grocer left the little boy on the wagon
and went into the house A little monkey
belonging to the family climbed into the
wagon, took his seat beside the boy, and
rubbed his face against the latter The
boy was not at all offended, and wishing
to be companionable, remarked " How do
you do, little boy What is your name ?"
The monkey was not communicative at all.
Looking around, he saw a basket of eggs
in the wagon. He jumped nimbly down
and picket up piece of hen fruit, cracked
it on the side of the wagon, and settling
back upon his launches began to suck it.
Dont,you steal my partners eggs" said
the little boy, and taking whip struck at
the monkey. The latter became enraged
and sprang at the boy, who began to cry
for help, saying: Make this little boy quit
fighting meI The grocer came out, and
the monkey skipped back and began to eat
another egg, when the boy exclaimed He
is bad little boy. He steals eggs. If l
knew his mother | would ;ell on him" "
1t was amusing afterwards to hear him
describe the bad little boy, who had no
clothes on. who was covered all over with
hair, and stole eggs.

THE POLICE COMMISSIONERS.
They Discuss the Efficiency of the Mem
bers of the Police Force.

bers oil the Ponce FORCE.
The Police Commissioners : Mayor
Gregory, Judge Buckley and Chief Dill
man-met in the Courtroom of the police
station yesterday afternoon, Mayor Gregory
in the chair.
The Mayor stated that the meeting had
been called mainly for the purpose of in
vestigating the charges against officer
O'Meara, who created a scene on the streets
a few evenings since. He asked that sus-
pension of thirty days be ordered, but the
Chief stated that he had already suspended
him, and would prefer the charges against
him when he (O'Meara) returned from San
francisco. 1t appears that after the event
referred to O'Meara went to San francisco
without asking the permission of the Chief.
But Judge Buckley stated that the accused
had come to him and asked permission to
go. The Judge told him that he should
wait and see the Chief, but OMeara did
not, and departed on the afternoon train
Wednesday.
The Judge read chapter from the statute
which gave the Chief the power to suspend
anyone on the force who disobeyed the
rules. He also said that he wished TO call
the attention of the Board TO certain &C.
tons of some of the members of the force,
and he asked that they be suspended if
they neglected to obey the rules. Some of
them, he said, were late in reporting and
others drank too much. He was in favor
of adopting some plan to make the officers
obey the rules He did not think officer
OMeara was the only one who was at
fault, and, in fact, knew of other cases.
The Mayor said that there were too many
good citizens idle who would be glad to ac-
cept positions ON the force at salary of
500 a month. He thought most of the
force looked more like dudes on the street
than real officers of the law, ard recon-
mended that their canes be taken from
them. He moved that all officers be re-
quired to wear their uniforms at all times
when on duty. The motion was carried.
He said that many of the officers were not
ashamed to go into low places and saloons
when they wore their citizens clothes, be-
cause then strangers could not recognize
them.
1t was suggested that all the officers be
ordered to appear at some meeting of the
Commissioners and be told their deficien-
cies, and give them to understand once for
all, and finally, their duty as policemen.
Chief Dillman said he would prefer the
charge of drunkenness against O'Meara,
and the whole affair would be Investigated
when the latter returned from his trip.

us Eddy street. San Francisco.

Mr.. SARsFIELD-Dear Sir: About ten
months ago my wife was great sufferer
from varicose ulcer. She had physician
attending her, but instead of improving
under his treatment she kept getting worse,
her leg breaking out in painful sores. She
was advised by friend to try your RENE
dies, which she did, and experienced relief
from the first, and in less than three
months was perfectly cured. She took a
few bottles of your Blood Remedy, which
did her more good than sll the other medi-
cines she had taken. She is now ENJOYING
better health than she has done for the last
four or FIVE years, and most cordially
recommends to all who are suffering from
sores from any description your wonderful
remedies. Yours truly.

JAPANESE PERsIMMoNs.-Many of the
gardens of Sacramento are at present deco
rated with japanese persimmon trees
loaded down with ripening fruit. The
leaves of these trees are now all off, leaving
the branches and fruit alone. and present.
ing very pretty sight. The Japanese who
recently visited Sacramento spoke very
l9udatory of this fruit, CHASING it as the
finest in that empire, and stated that it
would come to be greatly appreciated by
the American people when better known.
The trees produce very young, and some
very large specimens of the fruit are to be
seen in various parts of the city. In Henry
Furry's yard on Fourteenth street, between
and Q, is a small tree, only two years
old, that bore thirty fine persimmons this
year, and is much admired for its precosity.
Other similar instances of early fruiting
have been seen in this city. The persim-
mon seems well adapted to this climate.
Should the fruit become popular for the
table, it will no doubt be quite extensively
planted.
POLICE CoURT-In the Police Court yes
terday Kate Farley, charged with grand
larceny, had her examination contin-
